The BMW Group has achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first automotive manufacturer to receive the CCC Digital Key™ certificate from the Car Connectivity Consortium. This certification ensures that BMW’s digital key meets the highest secure and interoperable vehicle-to-device access standards. Since joining the consortium in 2017, BMW has been at the forefront of developing cross-industry technologies and safety standards.
The Car Connectivity Consortium, which includes major automotive and smartphone manufacturers, has been working on enhancing vehicle connectivity with intelligent mobile devices. “Certifying digital key solutions is crucial for increasing adoption and building trust among consumers,” said Alysia Johnson, President of the CCC.
BMW’s innovative approach to vehicle access has been evident since 2018, when they introduced the BMW Digital Key, allowing customers to unlock, lock, and start their vehicles using their smartphones via NFC. In 2021, BMW advanced this technology with the BMW Digital Key Plus, incorporating ultra-wideband technology for added security and convenience.
This technology is available across various BMW models, including the new MINI family. The BMW Group continues to lead the industry by developing and establishing global standards for digital vehicle access.
